beady eyes.
    He can’t be serious? Jason asked.
    Dwarf seers are known for their perfection. They are never wrong, which is why the information comes at such a steep price. D nodded to Angel, who disappeared quickly with a small group.
    Do we have that kind of money? I mean if you have another mate, doesn’t that mean we are all mated? Jason quizzed.
    Yes, we are all mated. We do have the money, I just don’t like paying that kind of amount, but it’s never wise to haggle with a dwarf. They will always be the first to up the price, rather than lower it. Besides, we need them to make weapons for our city, so it’s best to make friends now, D answered quickly.
    Then, if we can afford it and our mate is in trouble, we pay it. Jason agreed. D showed the burly man to a table separated, but Jason pulled Nathan toward the door. They weren’t needed here, and D had three guards with him. Jason wanted to see the city, so once they were clear from the drinking hall, Jason relaxed.
    “I could barely breathe in there. I have never seen a dwarf before, but I can honestly say that is going to take some getting used to. What do you think about having another mate?” Jason asked seriously, as they walked through the city’s streets. Jason was amazed by the sheer amount of artistic features the city held. Trees lined the street, adding in decoration and lighting during the nightly hours. Plants climbed up the living lights, with large bulbous flowers that reminded Jason of the exotic plants sold in the summer by humans. Unlike the human streets, the streets here were pebbled like that of a dried-up river bed.
    “I think we are blessed to have another mate. I would have been fine with one mate, but there’s always room in a person’s heart. I think that maybe we are mated for a reason, and each of us will provide something unique to our relationship. The only issue is with so many different personalities, we are bound to have fights, and arguments, but as long as we’re all committed, it won’t be an issue,” Nathan said with a smile as he kissed Jason’s fingers, sending shivers down his arms.
    “I think you’re right. We are mated for a reason. I just don’t think I was the best choice for you two. I’m not mean, and I can’t fight. Actually, can’t fight is the understatement of the year,” Jason vented as they eased to the center of the city. A natural fountain spewed water, and Jason sauntered toward the magically made creation, sitting at the edge of the water’s spray. Droplets formed as the mist kissed Jason’s face.
    “I think you don’t know what you’re worth at this point in your life. You haven’t really had a chance to grow yet. I think in time you’ll see just how useful you are to us, and it’s something that just takes time to figure out,” Nathan said as he squeezed Jason’s hand in encouragement.
    They have accepted the payment, and told us the location of our mate. They wish to remain in our fair city, and have offered their Dwarven services, under the condition they will be allowed to have a few approved shops here to sell at. I hope you agree, but I have already accepted. One of the shops will be for weaponry. Angel is going to set up services for special weapons to be made for our pack. After that is set up, Angel and Leif are going to the Elves to ask for some volunteer trainers for our pack. Then we’ll have our own guards for the city. We also received a summons from Kadyn at the Higher Council for us to see him immediately, that was two days ago. It’s on the way to where our mate is located, but we will have to tread very carefully, D spoke through the bond that tingled with his magic.
    Okay, so we can stop by the Higher Council, and have your meeting. Then we can leave from there to find our mate. If Leif is going with Angel, that leaves you short a guard, Nathan reasoned.
    Jason had only met Leif recently, but it seemed he was a close friend to Nathan, so Jason trusted him. He had
